Instead of just saying they are. And a school, none the less! What is this world coming to?
Private School in Bryant Arms Teachers and Staff
BRYANT, AR – A private school in Bryant is in the national spotlight, commended for its decision to train and arm its school’s staff.
“I just felt like with what’s going on in many of the public sectors where there seems to be a lot of shootings we need to take the same stance that we do in church on Sunday for our kids Monday through Friday,” says Pastor Perry Black.
Pastor Black has armed security during Sunday service, but now his school will be seeing the same thing five days a week. He posted some signs in front of the Arkansas Christian Academy in Bryant that read, “Staff is armed and trained. Any attempt to harm children will be met with deadly force.â€
Pastor Black says about 1 to 7 staff members are armed on any given day.
“We have the same law enforcement officers that have helped us through training and helped us through our concealed carry permits,” he says.

Pastor Black said staff and parents are very excited to be a part of the program that puts the safety of their children number one.
Good for them. Acting like there is a real world beyond the school doors and all!
